About The Mysterious Pearl 3D 테마파크 라이드

'미스터리어스 펄(The Mysterious Pearl)'은 중국 상하이의 한 해양 공원을 위해 제작된 3D 테마파크 라이드입니다. 이 라이드는 8분 분량의 입체 애니메이션 영상과 움직이는 탑승 차량을 결합했습니다. 이야기는 세상을 구하기 위한 여정에 나선 인어와 바다 생물 가족을 따라갑니다. 각 탑승 차량에는 수직 낙하와 수평 이동 등 일곱 가지 특수 효과가 적용되어 애니메이션과 정확히 동기화되어 반복 구현됩니다. 캐릭터와 애니메이션은 Maya로, 이펙트는 Houdini로 제작되었으며, 합성 작업은 After Effects와 Flame으로 이루어졌습니다.

Unique Properties
Mermaid is a 3D immersive experience located at Haichang Ocean Park theme park in Shanghai, China. Untitled Studios was approached by Haichang to design and create a fully immersive 3D experience based on the story of a mermaid and her quest to save the world.
During the creative process, we refined the characters of Mermaid and the ride's sea creature family, as well as creating the environmental background of the 8-minute animated universe.
Guests are transported into a state of the art 4D film that, along with surprising sensory elements, propels them into the ultimate 'Mermaid ride' experience.
The experience becomes even more immersive with the creation of a uniquely designed ride, each equipped with seven different special effects that repeat numerous times in tandem with the 3D animation, including vertical drops and horizontal motions!
Dimensions & Packaging
Stereoscopic 3d, 48fps, 12 scenes dimensions HD to 8k resolution. Digital Dolby.

Production Technology
All character design and animation are created in Maya, and all effects are created using Houdini.
Compositing are created in After effects and Flame.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge about this job is scale and timeframe.
The entire animation had to be created within six months of production.
Not only that, everything had to be done in stereoscope 3d at 48 per frame with a resolution at 8k. Managing data is one of the biggest issue we never even thought of. What we learned from it. Always optimise working files, very bytes counts in the end.
Research
There’s only a handful of theme park in the world. The biggest and the best is Disney. Competing with such a big brand is challenging. Our method is start from the basic, storytelling and character design. We knew getting this 2 formula right is important. Technology is the second part that we need to overcome. Finding the right company as partners is just as important. We believe in collaboration.
Inspiration
The inspiration comes from watching Pixar and Disney. When I was young I was fascinated with storytelling and animation. I love 3d character that can take you on a journey and explore the magical world. Mixing with roller coaster and storyline would give you the audience a whole new immersive experience.
Project Duration
